Answer:

Swimming can improve your health.

Step-by-step explanation:

Gerunds are nouns which derive from verbs and take the -ing form. In the sentence, the noun swimming functions as the subject of the verb can.

Gerunds are usually used as subjects of sentences, after certain verbs (such as enjoy and look forward to) and after prepositions.

A piece of fabric is 1/3 yard by 3 5/8 yards. Irma solves 1/3⋅3 5/8 to find the area of the fabric in square yards. Enter number

Harlamova29_29 [7]

For this case we have:

The area of the piece of fabric is given by $A = a * b$

Where

$a = \frac{1}{3}yards$

$b = 3 \frac{5}{8}yards$

Substituting in the formula of the area we have:

$A = \frac{1}{3}* 3 \frac{5}{8}\\$

$A = \frac{1}{3}* (3 + \frac{5}{8})\\$

$A = 1 + \frac{5}{24}$

$A = 1\frac{5}{24}yards ^ 2\\$

Thus, the area of the piece of fabric is given by: $A = 1\frac{5}{24}yards ^ 2\\$

Answer:

$A = 1\frac{5}{24}yards ^ 2\\$

A and b are positive integers and a–b = 3. Evaluate the following:

yulyashka [42]

1/27

125

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

a - b = 3

9^(1/2b) /3^a = 3^(2/2b) /3^a

= 3^b/3^a

= 3^(b-a)

= 3^(-3)

= 27^(-1)

= 1/27

27^(1/3b) /9^(1/2a) = 3^(3/3b) /3^(2/2a)

= 3^b/3^a

= 3^(b-a)

= 3^(-3)

= 27^(-1)

= 1/27

125^(1/3a) /25^(1/2b) = 5^(3/3a) /5^(2/2b)

= 5^a/5^b

= 5^(a- b)

= 5^3

= 125

Which angle has a sine of -1/2 and a cosine of -√3/2

Sergeeva-Olga [200]

$\sin x=-\dfrac{1}{2} < 0\\\\\cos x=-\dfrac{\sqrt3}{2} < 0\\\\therefore\ x\in(180^o;\ 270^o)$

$\text{We know:}\ \tan x=\dfrac{\sin x}{\cos x}\\\\\text{therefore:}\ \tan x=\dfrac{-\frac{1}{2}}{-\frac{\sqrt3}{2}}=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot\dfrac{2}{\sqrt3}=\dfrac{1}{\sqrt3}\cdot\dfrac{\sqrt3}{\sqrt3}=\dfrac{\sqrt3}{3}$

$\tan x=\dfrac{\sqrt3}{3}\Rightarrow x=30^o+180^o\cdot k;\ k\in\mathbb{Z}$

$x\in(180^o;\ 270^o)\ therefore\ \boxed{x=30^o+180^o=210^o}$
